Great Central in the Midlands

The photographic selection in this book, with several from the camera of Mike Mitchell, follows the line from Staveley Central through the East Midland cities of Nottingham and Leicester to Brackley Central in Northamptonshire, the southernmost station on the Great Central main line in the Midlands area.

There was a wide variety of motive power used over the GCR due to it being used as a cross-country route and the fact that under British Railways ownership it was controlled by both the Eastern and Midland regions, as well as joint ownership of Nottingham Victoria with the Great Northern Railway.

All photographs in this book are from the extensive library of The Transport Treasury and are available to purchase. You will find an image code at the end of each caption that accompany the wonderful photographs contained in this book.
